This 2006 Lamborghini Concept S Will be auctioned in New York

The car they introduced then was the Concept S, the one we are talking about today.

Designed by Luc Donckerwolke, long before he moved to the Bentley design department, the car is powered by the 5.0L V10 engine.

This model included a more radical bodywork that bisected the open cockpit, with a pair of low-profile wind deflectors instead of a single-flame windshield.

Based on the Gallardo, the car was intended to be a modern interpretation of new roadsters. They planned to divide the interior in two and give both the driver and passenger a separate windscreen.

They were so excited about this car that they were even planning to produce it in limited number. However, the high costs and production time let them finish only two models.

“The Gallardo Concept S is downright wild and an absolutely perfect car to be featured within the 10th floor galleries at Sotheby’s. The Lamborghini’s blend of avant-garde style and uniqueness sets the tone for what will be a theme carried throughout the entire catalogue.“
